Runners can still register at the race, beginning at 7:30 a.m. The 5K kicks off at 9 a.m. There’s also a one-mile walk, which begins at 8:30 a.m.

Afterward, there will be food and drink aplenty.

There will be a “fun fish” for kids, beginning at 9 a.m. Other events include demonstrations of blacksmithing, doll making, and Dutch oven cooking, an Old West gunfight re-enactment, and live music.

At 1 p.m., park officials will cut a ceremonial ribbon to officially open a new outdoor amphitheater, where a “family movie night” will take place in the evening. (Bring blankets if you plan to stick around for the movie.)

It’s also the first and only appearance that the NBA champion Mavericks will make in Madison Square Garden this year (unless Dallas and the Knicks meet in the NBA Finals). The two teams play in American Airlines Center on March 6.
